Doesn't the name "Romo Lampkin" remind you of Rumpelstilskin? Or was that just me?

Right there with you, sumi.

I usally adore this thread, because there's always some discussion. Today was the first time I felt off kilter when reading probably because I haven't watched Dresden yet and don't watch SPN.

Now, I noticed Katee wasn't in the credits. The thing is, I've never paid attention to the credits, before. Is that typical, when an actor isn't in an episode?

I loved Anders, but I always do. I still love all of them, so I don't even notice stuff like Bamber's range in the presence of EJO.

EJO is exactly why they call them "Lead" actors. (I love that he's the one who came up with "so say we all" which has become a catchphrase of great resonance for the series.)

Umm, it's a sign that they killed off her character. (She was a regular, I believe.)

Oh and the CW does put SPN episodes up on their website, so if I really, really have to, I should be able to watch the episode next week online. Whew.

I am very, very vexed by this whole "not getting Supernatural until Saturday" business. I mean, it's like they want me to break the law. Dean would be proud of what I'll be doing next Thursday.

There are two director's cuts up for Supernatural.

(I know! I can't believe that they didn't just show the episodes REALLY late, I'd stay up for them.)

Umm, it's a sign that they killed off her character. (She was a regular, I believe.)

Well, I know that silly, but I'm trying to figure out how much they killed her off. She was a regular. But I never paid attention to the credits, before. Are all the regulars' names in the credits every week, even if they're not in a given episode?

Hey, did anyone watch "Blood Ties" last night?

I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. They made some changes from the book that I don't like. For instance Henry is a graphic artist in the show. I liked that he wrote romance novels, it was a fun little quirk. I also didn't like the characterization of Henry his mysterious vampire powers made him seem manipulative. And I preferred the blood scene in the book, where Vicki figured out what he needed, and chose to give it to him, rather than having him in her arms, gasping "I need blood", not giving her the chance to make a conscious choice. Other than that I pretty much liked it. I'm not sure about the new/refurbished Colleen though. I'll keep watching.

Regulars are the one's that appear in the credits before the beginning of act one. Recurring characters appear in the credits that run over the beginning of the first act.

At least on BSG. Other shows - that are doing away with opening title sequences run regulars, recurring and guests over the first act. (See Heroes and Supernatural.)

I taped Blood Ties due to it's unfortunate timeslot against DF and BSG.
